Douglas County Commission to meet with limited agenda

The Douglas County Commission will meet Wednesday with a limited agenda, which includes a public hearing on next year’s maintenance budget for a Eudora-area road improvement district.

The public hearing will consider a proposed increase for the 2017 budget for the Hesper Road Improvement District from $40,000 annually to $52,000. The district maintains about 2.8 miles of North 1000 Road, East 2300 Road and North 1137 near the Hesper community south of Eudora. The arrangement includes an assessment on district homeowners, who then share in the district’s road maintenance with Eudora Township and the county.

The County Commission meets at 4 p.m. Wednesday at the Douglas County Courthouse, 1100 Massachusetts St. For a complete agenda, visit douglascountyks.org.
